The new Dior Addict Gloss: Diablotine & Rose Surprise

The reformulated Dior Addict Gloss formula promises mirror shine and
comfort, it has a gel like texture and contains "hyaluronic acid
spheres, to plump and moisturises lips for an intensified
volume-boosting effect".
Swatching them in store they felt tacky/sticky, but this great review, made me decide to take a chance on them. The line up has three
different textures; shimmer (glittery with a high shine finish), pearly
(softly illuminating) and pure (a bright block of colour with a variety of
finishes).
I picked up two of the shimmered ones; #643 Diablotine which
is a warm strawberry
#653 Rose Surprise which is a warm pink. Both
shades have golden micro glitter (£22 each).
Swatched below L-R:Diablotine, Rose Surprise Applied and they only have a very slight tackiness to them, I would say
pigment is sheer so best to go for a more intense shade. I do not find them
long wearing but as they feel so comfortable, reapplying isn't an issue.
The best aspect for me is that they leave the lips feeling very
moisturised and hydrated, the majority of glosses can often leave lips
feeling a bit parched after they wear off so this is a really great
attribute. I of course now want to try some of the ones in the pearly and pure finish, so if you have any recommendations please let me know.

Thank you for the link love <3 I am glad you like those as well, I also was very impressed by how they actually leave my lips - moisturized. I also find them very easy to reapply. I think you would like 853 - Rouge Défendu (a sheer red) from the pure line :) / Claire xxx
